Boris Zeisser

Boris Zeisser (born 29 April 1968, Alkmaar) is an internationally active Dutch architect, based in Rotterdam.

Education and career

Inspired by multiple visits to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater and this type of relation between architecture and nature, Boris Zeisser decided to study and practice architecture.[1] After graduating with an honorable mention from Delft University in 1995, he worked for the Dutch office Erick Van Egeraat Architects (1996-2000). On January 1, 2001, he established 24H>architecture, together with Maartje Lammers.

gollark: Thing is though that you can retroactively justify any mechanic by reaching into lore of some sort, but it doesn't actually help.
gollark: Indeed.
